It's because plants will grow faster in veg in smaller containers. Planting directly in your final pot adds a week or two to your veg cycle.Why do people start with a solo cup. And then a more medium sized pot. And THEN the ground. Why not just start with the second thing?
It seems like roots don't fully explore the soil when you put a small plant into a large pot.Why do people start with a solo cup. And then a more medium sized pot. And THEN the ground. Why not just start with the second thing?
Bingo! We have a winner.It's because plants will grow faster in veg in smaller containers. Planting directly in your final pot adds a week or two to your veg cycle.
so ,if i have this correct, you want the roots slightly root bound? i'm a newb so forgive me if that was a dumb question.Bingo! We have a winner.
Autos plant directly into pot they are staying in. Totally different ball game. I always transplant my photos just before rootboune. In my experience, root bound creates unneeded stress for the plant. Happy growsso ,if i have this correct, you want the roots slightly root bound? i'm a newb so forgive me if that was a dumb question.
even with autos?
What’s your weather like? If it’s warm and dry, big pots aren’t a problem. You have to be careful if you’re in a wet colder environment. If you have a seeding in a 3g and it gets rained on and you have a cold snap, it might take several weeks for the pot to dry out (and growth will really stall).Ya I think I'm just gonna start in 1-3 gallon. I dont need giants. More root less plant is fine with me.
No idea of your grow space or setup, but there’s a big difference in floor space (light coverage) between 10 solo cups and 10 3g pots.Gonna start them indoors 18-6. Then around may or june sometime just put them in the ground nice and ready.
2 gal black pots. They’d be ready for transplant outdoors without being rootbound.Gonna start them indoors 18-6. Then around may or june sometime just put them in the ground nice and ready.
